'Teachers cannot remain teaching lessons that can be googled or watched on YouTube.'
has put to an end the dominant paradigm that underlies our school system. We say goodbye to the “old school” that is based on a one-size-fits-all approach and say hello to the emerging customized fit-for-purpose education eco-system that is designed for undisrupted learning. The concept of this “new school” is fluid and will remain as such.The current school system is vulnerable to disruptions
We are all witnesses to our homes being transformed as the de facto classroom. This is where and when social exclusion is felt the most. Each home is unique. Each community is distinct. The students’ contexts are so diverse that a fixed curriculum could not adequately address the learning needs of individual learners, their homes, and communities.
To remain relevant, teachers should re-orient their practice toward designing learning tasks and episodes that challenge students to explore discovery and application of existing knowledge and pursue solutions to real-life challenges that learners experience and will experience. The new role of the teacher is to guide the learners on available resources students can use and learn from.
The DepEd is one big bureaucracy managing close to 900,000 teachers and 28 million basic education students. Policies are formulated by the Central Office and fleshed out down the line up to the individual school. Teachers frequently complain about the limited degree of freedom they have to fully respond to their learners’ needs. Some policies are perceived by teachers as restrictive and interfering from their professional judgment in the classroom.
